Restaurants · Blaenau Ffestiniog
Tucked away in a small Welsh village, this pub gives you two rooms to choose from, which matters more than it sounds when you've got children in tow — the bar side is cosy with a pool table and darts and the telly on, while the other room is brighter and more open, easier for spreading out a family around one table or parking a buggy. The staff are the reason people come back: they've lit the fire for wet, windy arrivals, found food for people turning up early or late, and brought out puddings with candles when they realised it was a birthday. Portions are hearty and homemade — the carvery, the hunter's chicken, the lasagne, generous breakfasts — and one family was seated and eating within fifteen minutes. Free parking, high chairs, a kids' menu and vegan options. Book for Sunday.
